“If your Mac has a multitouch trackpad, there’s a simple but amazing tweak you can make that could revolutionize the way you use your computer,” Keir Thomas writes for Cult of Mac.
“Open System Preferences (Apple menu->System Preferences), click the Trackpad icon, make sure the Point & Click tab is selected, then put a check next to Three Finger Drag,” Thomas writes. “Doing so activates the best-kept secret for Macs with a trackpad.

• Copying files
• Downloading web images
• Moving windows
• Selecting text
